Mommy t
I have a question about a diaper bag/backpack my husband and I bought. It's by Baby Innovations and he REALLY likes it a lot....I on the other hand am not so fond of it as I am trying to pack it up with daily essentials. It just seems cramped once everything gets in there and it seems like I'd have to unpack and repack just to get some things out.
What are essentials of a diaper bag in the first year of the babies life and what other functions should it preform? Maybe I can make this one work, but I don't think so. I feel bad because he really likes it.
I am thinking of just returning this and buying a regular backpack.......This does has some functions I love to it....like a pacifier holder on the outside, and it came with a changing pad, and it has an insualted spot fot bottles.
We are breastfeeding mostly with bottle feedings of breast milk when I am not around or someone else would like a chance to feed.
I assume a sling or a shawl is not small and takes up space....
I am also a nanny and will have him with me all day at someone else's house come fall.
I was thinking of buying a regular backpack we both like....wouldn't it serve the same purpose?
Answer
To be honest ANY diaper bag you get is going to be cramped, atleast with me. It seems the bigger the diaper bag I get the MORE I want to put in there LOL.. =) I'm always just trying to Cram just a little more..hehe
But, if you arent that fond of it as far as looks then I think its ok that you get a new one..OR just get a new one for your outtings, and let your husband use that one.
This is what I pack..
4 Bottles w/water in them
Can of formula
3-4 Blankets (some heavier some lighter)
1-2 Outfits depending on where we are going and how long we will be.
Baby Sunscreen/Sunglasses
Infant Tylenol (we bought 1 ecspecially for our bag, Teething pain can get BAD!)
LOTS of toys
Diapers
Wipes
Burp Cloth...For drool, spit up, or milk on my babys face
& His sippy w/juice in it.
Plus a bowl, spoon, & a pack of baby food just in case we arent home for our 6 o'clock feeding..
Of course you wont need to worry about that till later.. =)
I do pack a lot but, I HATE going out and realizing I wish I had brung this..It never fails when I do leave it at home I wish I would have brung it. So, Do what you think is going to work best for you. You can always try this one out when your baby gets here and if you dont like it then get a new one =)
I have 3...
A small one for VERY short trips..like drs office.
A larger one for LOONG trips and one that is just a little smaller then my big one that I got because it fit so well under my stroller when the bigger one didn't.
We just had to figure out what worked best for us, so once your baby is born you'll figure it out!! =)

Where can I find a coupon code for California Baby Super Sensitive No Fragrance Everyday Lotion
Answer
Vitamin E and aloe vera are infused into high quality product.
A silky smooth lotion that leaves the skin healthy.
Make part of an after shower or bath routine.
Perfectly portable in a diaper bag, gym bag, or backpack.
A luxurious lotion that is perfect for those with allergies.
This luxurious lotion is perfect for those with allergies or fragrance intolerance or who are following a homeopathic regime. In addition to being free of fragrance or scent-masking agents, this hypoallergenic lotion does not contain any nut oils, gluten, soy, oat, dairy, or alcohol. Vitamin E and aloe vera are infused into high quality, cold pressed vegetable oils that are non-greasy and absorb quickly to create a silky smooth lotion that leaves the skin with a long-lasting satiny finish - an excellent bed or naptime massage lotion. Keep skin healthy and make this part of an after shower or bath routine. The custom pump locks in the up position making this lotion perfectly portable in a diaper bag, gym bag, or backpack without worrying about a mess.
I have most of the California Baby products for my 5 month old and my 3 year old. They both get eczema and have fair skin. NONE of the CB products irritate them and they work we well, if not better than the mass market brands. Both kids are prone to red rashes on their cheeks, and since I started using the Sensitive Everyday Lotion, their faces are much more clear. Plus the lotion keeps them moisturized far longer than the regular brands. The fragrances in the other products (not the fragrance-free obviously) are mild and pleasant. I highly recommend all of the CB products - especially if you are looking for natural and SAFE baby products.
